Wrist pain not healing
Hi doc, I recently become mother 12 weeks back. Since then I am alone handling my baby .. as I don't have option to give baby to other. I hardly sleep 2-3 hour per day. Pain developed in my right wrist due to breastfeeding my baby and carrying my baby in lap. I have applied moov and using wristband but still pain is not healing. What should I do?

Pain is due to holding the baby. Apply ice and volini gel over affected area. Also sleep for 6-8 hrs. Sleep is important for healing. Persistent lack of sleep will cause other health problems which will also affect the quality of breast milk and hence your baby.
